This week our board of directors met up in Santa Fe, New Mexico, for our 1st annual board retreat. It was a great opportunity to look at the year ahead, get into the weeds discussing RE:PUBLIC's mission and tactics, and develop the long-term strategic plan for our organization.

For nearly 120 years, the Antiquities Act has helped protect places like Bears Ears, the Grand Canyon, marine monuments, and more. Now, with courts, Congress, and a second Trump term in play, its future is uncertain.

Checking in on the Chaos Theory Coal craziness, unconfirmed nominees, roadless forests, and the Bannon-style blitz: why stepping back to track public-lands decisions has never been more important.

Our latest newsletter steps back to track the flood of public-lands decisions—from coal leasing and roadless forests to how the federal shutdown impacted our national parks. If we only chase headlines, we miss the story.

This is why we built a newsroom focused on public lands. Last week, Congress moved to roll back mining protections near the Boundary Waters and may now target Grand Staircase–Escalante. With journalism shrinking, these stories can slip by. We’re focused so they don’t.

Photo introducing Jeremy Clark, man posing outside in a photo, to the Bluesky audience. He's RE:PUBLIC's creative director. He said his favorite public land is the high backcountry of Yosemite National Park. He joined RE:PUBLIC because "Chris' mission immediately resonated with me, as did the challenge of helping stand up a digital-first newsroom from the ground up. RE:PUBLIC felt like a rare chance to apply decades of digital publishing experience to something that genuinely matters." He also said that the part of RE:PUBLIC's mission that resonates with him the most is that "there's such a fundamental disconnect between how important people hold public lands and national parks in their hearts and minds and how little news about these topics actually reaches them. It's not necessarily that they don't care, it's that they get flooded with the daily firehose of politics and social media. We're here to change that."

Meet Jeremy Clark, our founding creative director, digital. 🌵
With a lifelong connection to public lands, Jeremy brings over 20 years in design, tech, and publishing—including helping launch early iPad magazines at Adobe for WIRED, The New Yorker, and more—to power RE:PUBLIC’s storytelling.

The Ground Truth Government-issued maps are a public trust, a promise to help us explore America’s public lands safely. Yet they no longer reflect the reality of our nation’s trails.

We published a new investigative report that is best explored through our new interactive maps. Co-published with @HighCountryNews, "The Ground Truth" by Dillon Osleger shows how America’s public trails are disappearing, even as official maps lag behind.
